If you can't flash any rom in your current recovery. first, check if rom compatible with your recovery? If not, update or change your recovery. Second, make sure, is your rom compatible?

You can flash it and it'll overwrite the previous version.

On my i717, if I get that error it means that my recovery is outdated. Are you using the latest cwm for your tablet?

Use latest CWM official (touch or non-touch). This will resolve the problem. ;]

The reason why everybody says that, please charge your device before upgrading.
Anyway, have you rooted your device?
Do you have custom recovery like CMW installed?
What you actually want now?
I mean to say, Do you want to update to latest stock firmware?
Or you want custom ROM to be running on your device?
You will loose VOID, if you upgrade to custom ROMS.

I suggest, if you want to be official then flash OFFICIAL FIRMWARE zip via ODIN.
If you want to unofficial, try flashing stable ROM and get rooted with CMW installed.

I can't able to boot into either recovery and download mode,then how to use Odin...
Sent from my MT27i using xda app-developers app
Are you saying that your tab is bricked?
If so then
Press POWER button and VOLUME UP button simultaneously till you see Galaxy tab2 logo then release it.
Now WIPE CACHE PARTITION
then WIPE DATA / FACTORY RESET
now go to ADVANCED and choose WIPE DALVIK CACHE
And then reboot your tab.
If not, Try to post on this thread

If also not succeeded, you have to read this complete article

whats the problem? did you do a md5sum check on the file to make sure its not corrupt? are you sure its for your variant only?
I checked and it's not corrupted. It is also for the i9100g variant only. But when i flash the rom, it always fails. When i flash,it appears 'error'.

So you already have your i9100G rooted with custom recovery?
What recovery are you using to attempt the 4.4 rom ?
You should always provide a bit more information when asking for help.
Phone model/version? Custom recovery name/version? etc.
Also what precise 4.4 rom + link are you trying to install?
does it just say error? or like Error 7, give us the entire log when you try to flash it.
Edit: now that I think of it, are you on the latest CWM? also what version of android are you coming from? if its gingerbread I don't think CWM will let you flash it because it knows it will brick your phone since your on gingerbread boot loaders. might have to flash a jelly bean rom first.
Phone model: Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100G
Custom recovery: CWM recovery 2.6.3.2
I'm coming from the android version of 4.1.2
I'm trying to install the Bam 2.0 rom.
When i flash , it says:
"Error 7
Installation aborted"

It does mean the update-binary inside the flashable ZIP is not up to date.

Yes , you are right do you have any solution for this ,plz help me out.
Sent from my GT-P3100 using XDA Premium HD app
No need to replace it. If you like, you can take the update-binary from a KitKat build (ectract it from the Rom.zip) and replace inside your ZIP.
